This opens up new opportunities for companies faced with varying product types and operating conditions.

🤖 Integration of robotics and individual picking

In the world of small parts and individual customer requests ('batch size 1'), the integration of robotics and overhead conveyor technology is becoming increasingly important. Innovations in the area of ​​AutoStore systems, for example, where an innovative system robot with an LTO battery (lithium titanate oxide) is presented in a showcase, promise faster charging times and thus an increase in productivity by up to 15 percent. System integrators show expanded product ranges for project- and process-specific optimization of the storage concept, including special transfer cells for the efficient transfer of stored goods to conveyor technology or automated guided vehicles (AGVs). Other innovations include robot picking solutions and intelligently controlled Warehouse Management System (WMS) software that enable coordinated process control and individual prioritization strategies.

✨ Innovative intralogistics tower and new possibilities

Another highlight is the new development of an intralogistics tower with up to 1,000 container storage spaces, which offers a cost-effective way to get started with automated storage. The tower combines a static shelf with a rotating container lifter – the heart of the system. Designed for up to three-deep storage and automating goods-to-person picking, this solution is aimed primarily at small businesses looking to modernize their manual warehouse processes.

❄️ High-performance order picking system for frozen logistics

A new, fully automatic, high-performance order picking system that can work at temperatures of up to minus 25 degrees Celsius is being demonstrated specifically to meet the challenges of deep-freeze logistics. With throughput rates of up to 12,000 position changes per hour for both storage and retrieval, this system sets new standards for efficiency in deep-freeze storage.

🔄 Paradigm shift in warehousing

Overall, the paradigms in warehousing are shifting significantly due to technological advances. Previous manual or semi-automatic systems are increasingly giving way to fully automated solutions, which not only make warehousing more cost-effective and efficient, but also open up new possibilities for companies of all sizes. Above all, the scalability and flexibility of the new systems allow companies to react quickly to market requirements and adapt their storage capacities as needed.

🧠 AI integration and optimization through machine learning

In addition, there is the increased integration of artificial intelligence and machine learning, which masters the complexity of processes and continuously optimizes them. Smart algorithms and data analysis tools help to further increase efficiency, for example by calculating the optimal route for the shuttle or prioritizing storage and retrieval processes based on demand forecasts and order histories.

🌿 Sustainable logistics through technology development

From an ecological perspective, the new technologies also contribute to more sustainable logistics by saving energy and improving the CO2 balance, because improved storage density and more efficient processes lead to lower energy requirements and thus reduced emissions. It can be assumed that this trend will continue and the storage solutions of the future will become even more energy efficient and environmentally friendly.

🏭 New era in bearing industry and future developments

The implementation of such advanced storage solutions significantly strengthens the competitiveness of companies through cost reduction, increased productivity and improved response to market changes. The bearing industry is inevitably entering a new era, and it will be exciting to see how these technologies continue to evolve and what new opportunities they will create.

🔧⚙️ New dimensions in logistics

The development in the area of ​​shuttle technology and automated storage systems represents a turning point in logistics, which brings with it a fundamental change in warehousing and material flow. Not only are these systems more efficient and reliable, they also enable completely new scalability of warehouse processes. Companies can now adapt their infrastructure very precisely to the existing order volumes and the dynamics of their business.

📈🔄 Scalable warehouse resources

The ability to dynamically scale warehouse resources brings significant benefits. During peak times, for example in the run-up to Christmas or during seasonal fluctuations, companies can seamlessly ramp up their capacities without having to invest in stationary, inflexible infrastructure. This not only in terms of physical storage capacities, but also in process performance. Container shuttle systems and autonomous transport vehicles can seamlessly intensify their activities without the need to proportionally increase human staff.

🔀🔗 Integrated system components

One aspect that is becoming increasingly important in modern warehouse logistics is the integration of various system components. The networking of the various technologies plays a key role here, from storage and picking technology, to transport and sorting components, to the warehouse management system. Innovative interfaces and data protocols achieve synchronization, which makes it possible to combine individual elements into a seamless, high-performance overall system. This makes it possible to develop precisely tailored solutions for individual customer requirements.
